WORKBOOKS

The WORKBOOKS section gives you the ability to upload Excel workbooks, which can be used as datasets for a report or to pin selected parts of that workbook to a dashboard. Workbooks can be updated by either reuploading the workbook, using the database management gateway, or using OneDrive. OneDrive is Microsoft's cloud-hosted hard drive system. With OneDrive, you can simply share or save your Excel workbooks, and if you're using the workbook in a Power BI report, it can also refresh.
